Dining Services Unveils Updates to Better Serve Students

ֹ’s Dining Services has made various updates to its markets and cafés on campus in response to students’ needs. These updates range from clearer labeling of menus to helping students with food allergies to encouraging students to explore their culinary options.

Mindful Labeling

There are different symbols diners can use to identify the contents of items on menus in the dining halls and the markets.

  • “GF” stands for gluten-free items. Gluten is a protein composite found in wheat, barley, rye and triticale.
  • “L” stands for locally sourced ingredients.
  • “O” stands for meals that meet the U. S. Department of Agriculture definition of organic.
  • “VG” stands for vegan options.
  • “V” stands for vegetarian.

“These labels make it easier for students to quickly identify options they can eat,” said Megan Cascaldo, ֹ’s Dining Services dietician.
